X-Men Forever #4
The mansion is still reeling from the events of the previous issue; having just scraped through the Fabian Cortez mission by the skin of their teeth, they were completely unprepared for a psychic blast from Jean, which rendered them all unconscious, and even less prepared for the subsequent surprise visit from one of their greatest nemeses, SABRETOOTH! But as the dust from the battle between the X-Men and this invader—culminating in a brutal battle between Sabes and a particularly vicious Storm—all may not be as it appears... Plus, what secret is Kitty hiding up her sleeve? Don't miss comics legend and New York Times Bestselling Author CHRIS CLAREMONT's thrilling return to the X-MEN!

I'm luvin' this title. And, Paul Smith is coming on board as artist! What more can you ask for?

Is that Shadowcat and her pet dragon Lockheed?

I have high hopes for this after the absurdity of issue 3. Although I may have to hold off on reading until after story time.

POTW?
Even if it's not, I hope Ron talks about it on the show. I'm never going to buy it, but his narration of the story is Fantastic!
Is Wolverine really gone?

Considering how often this book comes out, and how entertaining it is in its own way, it's got to make Ron's POTW at some point. And that is going to be a VERY entertaining week on this site, whenever it happens.

Are people rating this book ironically?

This books writing is almost everything that made me quit reading comics in the 90's.
Claremont should really get Liefeld to draw this thing... that would help capture the essence of 90's suck that he seems to be going for.
I feel bad for the artist having to draw things that match the wildly inconsistent dialogue from panel to panel.
That said, Ron's enjoyment and re-telling of the issues is enough to make me read it every time it comes out. I want a MST3K / Rifftrax style audio commentary from Ron as he reads this book.

Since I only have 3 books this week, I kinda wanna buy this just so I can be in on the joke...
